Exclusively Housewares says it has a full line-up for its 2014 event, just 16 weeks after the 2013 edition of the London show.
The speed of the sell-out is a record for Exclusively Housewares, which this year attracted its biggest audience to date, visitor numbers being up 6% on 2012.

"We're delighted, once again, to be in the position of having a sell-out show," said show director Simon Boyd. "We're extremely lucky to have a fantastic waiting list for space in the show, and we're steadily working towards being able to expand the show in 2015 by introducing an additional hall dedicated to small domestic appliance (SDA) exhibitors, which will also allow us to free up some space to bring in additional housewares manufacturers."

New exhibitors for 2014 include Everyware Global, KitchenAid, Melitta Europa, Root7 and Smart Worldwide, with Fiskars, OXO Good Grips and Sodastream returning to the show after a break.

And, added Mr Boyd: "We have some very loyal exhibitors who really form the backbone of the show; their renewal every year gives the show stability and the confidence of presenting a great line-up for visitors every year.

"We're also very pleased that the majority of our new exhibitors from this year will be returning for 2014."

He said reaction to the plan to add an SDA hall had been very positive. "In effect, we've given ourselves 18 months to build an exhibitor list as impressive as our housewares one for the new hall. The reaction from the market has been constructive and optimistic, so we're confident we'll find a good mix of manufacturers to support the concept," he said.

The new hall will include linen care, electrical cooking including microwaves, beverage making, food preparation and floorcare.

The 2014 Exclusively Housewares show will run at the Business Design Centre in London on June 10 and l1.
